Hello

My Story

I am Lea Fialho, the creator at the Studio LeaF, where the magic happens.

If you have not figure it out by now, my label, LeaF, is a fusion of my first name and the first letter of my last name.

​

Although I attended schooll in Brazil, where I am from, my professional experience in the fashion industry is in USA. I have worked as a hands-on designer, pattern maker and master tailor, and I have also owned my boutique and created my clothing line.

​

For 8 years, I worked for the renowned clothing retailer Brooks Brothers. There I was entrusted with a variety of roles, from overseeing the made-to-measure suit manufacturing process (including "hands-on", creating each pattern) to teaching associates all aspects of made-to-mesaure suits, at many Brooks Brothers stores. Between the factory and the stores, I gained firsthand knowledge of the entire clothing manufacturing process and an in-depth knowledge of the industry that I knew would serve me well in future endeavors. 

​

In 2018 I re-created my brand LeaF, of clothing and bags, that has evolved through lots of feedback from customers. 

​

In 2021, I decided to open my studio to help other brands bring their own ideas to life. I know how difficult it is to find manufacturers for small quantites, I experienced that with my brand. With that in mind, I created products that can be customized to your needs or I can help you execute your idea, of Tees/Tops/T-shirst & bags. I can develop a whole new product for you, create a tech pack, a pattern, a sample and ethicanlly produce it right here in USA.

​

I am advocate for sustainability and am constatly looking for ways to improve in this area.  Sustainability is a way of life and we must do our part.​ At Stduio LeaF we "can" create a product that is more sustainable, ethically made and with a quality that will last longer. It is your choice, I have the materials and the knowlodge to make it happen.

​Whether you decide to customize my products for your brand or let me help you with your own design, let's create together. There are infinite possibilities awaiting for you right here.
